Danesh Varma is co-founder of a private equity fund that invests in India, and offers his assessment of the country's economic policies. At the end of a bumper football transfer season for the Premier League, Dr Dan Plumley, a sport finance expert at Sheffield Hallam University, tells us why clubs are spending so much money this time round. Plus, as sales of non-digital cameras signal a comeback for traditional photography, Sally Bibawy of Lomography, a company which sells film cameras, tells us what's behind the boom.
